Always

You are always on my mind
Constantly
Every moment I think about You.
I remember how I trusted You
How I knew You
With the naivete only possible from a child.
I long for that faith again

Yet You are always on my mind.
You see everything I do through me
Because You are always on my mind.
You know the intention of my every deed
Because You are always on my mind.
You inhabit my being in every way.
Is this what it means to be Your temple?

I sometimes think You're not watching,
And I try to get away with things,
But then You're right there watching, seeing, being,
All through me
Because You are always on my mind.
Is this how You paid my price?
Is this why You died for me?

I think about my future and You are there,
I think about my past and You are there,
I think about the present,
You are here.
Will you show me again?
Show me again how you were, are, and always will be?

I can't shake Your feeling,
And I don't think I ever want to.
You are my calm before the storm, after, and during.
The whole world can try to win me,
But You've already bought me, set me free, and said "Choose!"

I can't explain how much I love You,
There are no words.
My lips are not capable to speak the feelings I have for You.
I never liked fighting but I would fight for You!
I would die for You.

How I dream to be like one of Your angels,
Doing Your work and delighting in it.
How I long to be given a name.
If You gave me a name, I would cherish it forever.
I would wear it upon my body, mind, and soul.

Your stories fascinate me from one religion to another.
You are the voice of Love.
You make the complex simple,
If only my perception were clear enough to grasp it better!

You are always on my mind.
I eat, breath, think, and wish You everyday.
Everyday I look outside my window and wonder if today will be the day,
The day You come and take me.
Then I realize that day is everyday,
Because You are always on my mind.

Always
